Sumario:This article provides an interdisciplinary study between theater and dance, taking as the point of discussion the question of contact of the actor and the dancer with himself, with the space and with the partner. Initially, it identifies the importance of “contact” in the scenic game of the actor in the context of the studies of three important researcher artists of theater: Constantin Stanislavski, Jerzy Grotowski and Augusto Boal. Then, it presents the Contact Improvisation created by Steve Paxton and draws a parallel between the technical skills involved in the exercise of contact within this practice with the contact required in the actor’s work, presented by the theater researchers. Thus, the study affirms the interest in the practice of Contact Improvisation as a formative means and also as base for theatrical creative processes.
